I HATE THE DMV
So, I went to the DMV today at the right time for my Driver's Test, and brought all the papers they said I needed, but you know what? It's the DMV, which means it's their job to make EVERYTHING difficult.
SO, I get to the counter, hand the lady my papers, and here's what she says. "We can't accept this certificate unless you have the envelope it came in so we can verify it's authenticity." The certificate in question is the certificate from the Maine driver's ed course I took a few years ago. I didn't keep the frigging envelope because NO ONE said anything about it, they just told me I needed the certificate. What's worse, I asked the lady if she could just call the Maine DMV and verify the document and she responded with a "No" that had a tone of "you fucking retard" to it.
So, VERY pissed off, I had to leave the DMV and call Maine to request another certificate. The lady I spoke to at the Maine DMV couldn't believe that I had been told this and agreed with me that the Maryland people are idiots, then told me she'd mail out another certificate for me. It should be here in a few days, and then I have to go back and try to take my driver's test all over again.
Good thing: I FINALLY heard from Aaron today after almost 2 weeks without hearing from him. I was so happy and relieved to get his e-mail that I squeeled.
Other good thing: I ran for the first time today since I was put on my no-running profile in July, hopefully my knees aren't cripplingly painful tomorrow.
